Unrelated picture of Blacks Against Obama

Karen Cooper, a 38-year-old African American, who works as mail carrier for the United States Postal Service, is now speaking out on why she recently joined the Tea Party and no longer supports President Obama.
She originally voted for President Obama in 2008, but says she won’t vote for him if he runs for a second term. “I thought he was going to provide a positive role model to blacks to show them that they could succeed in this great nation. Instead he has coddled black people,” she says.

Text continues after gallery …

Cooper says Obama lost her trust when he nominated Sonia Sotomayor for Supreme Court and with his handling of the arrest of Henry Louis Gates Jr.

She classifies her experience with the Tea Party Movement as “wonderful” and rejects the recent NAACP condemnation of the Tea Party as racist. “It’s absurd,” the New York native said. “I’ve never seen anything racist about it. At the meetings there are patriotic Americans. No one should talk about the Tea Party unless they have gone to the meetings.” Cooper criticizes President Obama’s spending, but rejects the Republican Party, who she views as obsessed with “getting re-elected.”

It seems Cooper does not support a President who sympathizes, nominates, or supports people of their own race. Has she seen the US Congress lately?

According to Cooper, we cannot criticize the Tea Party, until we go to a meeting. The signs the Tea Party display don’t typically look like invitations for blacks, do they Cooper?

    Unfair and cheap shot Samuel. First off, is that person holding the “monkey see..” sign a member of the Tea Party, who accepts the principles of the movement? Or is he just some child who thinks his sign is funny? And hell, it’s not even out of the realm of possibility, that it’s actually a Democrat operative trying to further discredit this movement. Secondly, like many black Americans, she admits that she didn’t vote for the man because of his political views but because she thought he would be a good role model for young black men. But with BHO’s playing the fence at best, and absolute cowardice at worse with respect to race issues, many blacks are now seeing that even that aspect of his Presidency is lacking, never mind how much of a failure his ADMINISTRATION has been is trying to get the country back on solid footing, thus far. Because sites like yours have followed the lead of your liberal network masters, and condemned the Tea Party without a fair hearing, many of these “I voted for him because he is black” negroes won’t be back to the polls, because they won’t see viable options. It’s going to be tough road from BHO in 2012, one I don’t think he will win, if he is matched against the “right” republican.

    Hey _A_, your opinion of why a lot of Black people voted for President Obama is holds some merit. And to scrutinize his policies is your right. We should all hold the Administration accountable to the issues that affect all of us. But if you’re waiting for the ‘right’ Republican to take back the Administrative Office in ’12, don’t hold your breath. The GOP has no platform that relates to reforming unemployment, education, race relations, etc. And if you think Palin is the answer, you’ll be disappointed again.

    So what if she supports the tea party. There are racist and fringe elements in every group. Blacks have Malik Zulu Shabaaz, Louis Farakhan, and Jermiah Wright. The tea party has their share of nuts too. Blacks MUST get out of the mentality that if you side with anyone besides the democrats; you‘re a self hating Uncle Tom. We are the only ethnic group that tears each other down for having opposing viewpoints. It needs to stop. Maybe you could lead the way Samuel.

    Honestly, I can’t blame people for their political points of view, so I won’t. I’ll just say that I HOPE we don’t get an article every time a Black person in the Tea Party says something…we already know all Black people don’t like Obama.

    To me, the heart of most of Obama’s criticism lies in misrepresentation of facts and unrealistic expectations. It seems like those who have NO CLUE about what the government actually does and how long/what it takes, are screaming the loudest. Yet, when Obama DOES accomplish something huge, they widdle it down to: “Yea, but he didn’t do ‘such-and-such’” (enter whatever your personal pet peeve is).

    YES, I think Obama could/can do more, but even when he does, some of you will still pick out the bad from the good (as if ANY piece of legislation has EVER been “perfect”..EVER..in all of history), or just be too blind to see it, so what does it matter?

    Add to that, Obama has accomplished more in this Presidency (~20 months in, no less) than the previous three/four terms (not combined) in an environment full of rampant fiscal irresponsibility, national unemployment, fixing Bush’s mess(es), huge natural disaster, and a “by-the-second-OMG-Obama-just-ate-a-French-Fry-Reagan-wouldn’t-have-done-that-news-cycle.”

    Basically, I say if you’re one of the BLIND who will always see the negative, OR if you’re one of the BLIND who will only see the positive, take a look at what Obama’s accomplished in context with what he SAID he would do:

    http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/subjects/

    Anything outside of those expectations he set forth for this country and himself (i.e., The reason people ‘should’ have voted for him) is all in your heads. Feel how you wish to feel, but know, if he falls short of YOUR personal expectations, that’s on YOU.

    Can’t blame someone for NOT doing something they never told you they would do in the first place…especially if you don’t know what they already have on their plate.

    @BP_SportsFreaks’ quote: “The GOP has no platform that relates to reforming unemployment, education, race relations, etc.” You bring up a valid point to discuss, and I agree. Now I’ll speakin general to everyone when I say the following: The reason why the GOP does not have these platforms is because we have not infiltrated that party to make sure they have them. Remember the expression “keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.” If we’re only going to be mad and complain about Republicans from the outside, then when they get power, we will be left out. That is not a smart policy, and not very sophisticated at all. We must not allow ANY political party monopolize us! Since the Civil War, we first let the party of Abraham Lincoln, the old Republican Party, monopolize us until the 1950s and 60s. With Presidents Kennedy and LBJ, we then let the Democrats (who used to be more racist) monopolize us because of the myth of the War on Poverty. So for nearly 150 years, we have embarrassed ourselves in the annals of human history by being a very one-side, unsophisticated group with one overly simplistic political philosophy: run en masse to the master making a few dollar bills rain on us. Time to end this silly approach. Infiltrate every political group and see what makes it constituents tick, and how they think.

    yes our president does have some “issues”, but to compare the tea party to the rev wright is silly. if my organization is going to be prejudice, it wont be against me. if you think obama doesnt care about the plight of blacks in america, u vote for a tea bagger and see how much love u get. i dont know where these black tea baggers get this notion that we r somehow “blinded” by obamas charm.

    look, ronald reagan was not smart. he was an actor (and not even a good one). he “acted” like the president and it was the best depiction of a president the republicans had ever. but they better admit that his administration had some epic fails, and we are facing the effects of his policies to this day. whenever i hear “the govt is too big”, from someone who works 4 our govt it raises an eyebrow because they’re not talking about their pay, pentions or insurance coverage.

    ronald reagans’ “free market” model is the blueprint of the agenda the tea party represents. when u have to wave a sign and take a picture for people to believe u exist, u may be at the wrong party.

    from what i’ve seen so far, obama isnt left or right at all, hes a centrist. he looks at an issue, does research and makes an educated decision. this type of reasoning is far beyond any republican, and karl rove is proof of this. i think the the american public is smarter than conservatives think they are. we voted them out of power, now they are the minority.

    yes, some legislation has been weaker than we expected, but hearing the minority party b!tch and fillibuster over the smallest issues is what is turning their party into an endangered species. they will lose this election, and in 2012 no matter how “right” the gops candidate is because they have no solutions, just critism.

    Hey BP_Sportsfreak. The Dems have controlled both houses for 4 years and add to that the White House for the past 2. What exactly have they done with regards to reforming unemployment, education or race relations? I’ll give you as much time as you need to compile your list. Secondly, you should be old enough to realize that elections are based more on “voting bums out” than anything else. All it takes is for the people who believed you would change things to stop believing. The “right Republican” is not one who actually intends to do anything, but rather, one who can capitalize and exploit the dissatisfaction. How do you think BHO won? In fact I contend, that ANY Dem WOULD have beaten McCain/Palin, with the entire country being so anti-Bush/Republican at that time.

    I always find it funny when someone opposes this Pres, it is assumed he HAS to be a Republican. Infinite_Question used to accuse me of this many times, even though I had explicity explained to him that Politics is ONE game I don’t get involved with. BOTH parties are full of shyt, and only have ONE goal in mind and that is maintaining status quo, which leaves you, me and billions more around the world, shut out!

    Lastly, Me? a Sarah Palin fan? lol, if you could only see the battle I’m having on Youtube concerning that bimbo. One thing I won’t do though is underestimate her chances of winning, because with the level of dissatisfaction BHO is exp right now, America is just stupid enough to vote her in!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/_A_/ _A_

    The funniest complaint I always hear is, how Bush fcked things up so badly in his term. Well I wonder, how was he able to do that? At no time did the Republicans control both houses. In 2006, both houses were controlled by his so called enemy. This means, that many Democrats were in support of his so called wayward policies. You know, I’m always reminded about the REagan era as if this country was doing so great prior to him…I mean are you serious? 4yrs after Ronny, Bill had the White House for 8 years, why was he unable to reverse any of this bad policy or pass corrective legislation…oh wait, I got it, the Republicans must have blocked him, right? It’s laughable to me because this derivative market mess is a DIRECT RESULT of Clinton and his circle of Wall street cronies, BLOCKING all attempts by Brooksley Born to regulate this market. Summers, Rubin, Greenspan (FED Chief), Leavitt (SEC chairman) was in the PResident’s ear accusing her of not allowing the free market to work. You people who are steadily trying to find distinctions between these two parties will hopefully wake up soon.

    @Infinite_question. I’m not interested enough to protest him, nor foolish enough to support him. Both are actually exercises in futility.

    The media has effectively turned our focus to the tea party and AWAY from Obama’s ineffective policies and lies. They just had a Million Mortgage March (That’s my term not the official) in DC this past weekend. Desperate people showing up for one last effort to modify their mortgage. The HAMP program is a farce. AS it turns out, the Administration stipulated participation in this program for banks to qualify for bailout money. Here is the thing though, banks get cash credit for merely LOOKING at a mortgage modification request, not for actually modifying it..lol…This is why only about 14% of all eligible mortgages have actually been restructured. Even when you think they are “helping” you, they are still only helping themselves. Only a fool would expect otherwise though, Tim Geithner is fighting for them (banks), NOT YOU!!!!!

    I had to get on this one.

    Its things like this that hold black people back. Of course miseducation,self-inflicted violence, laziness and ineptitude contribute, but the major failure of black people is their willingness to align themselves with those who seek their destruction.

    To put it bluntly its not what the Tea Party is about as much as the likelihood of certain people to populate the Tea Party. Before the Tea Party, I felt that if a person was KKK member, Neo-Nazi, facist, or blatant racist…..99.9999999% of the time they were Republicans. Now if a person is a KKK member, Neo-Nazi, facist or blatant racist there is an absolute 100% chance that they are a member of the Tea Party.

    And as much as i loathe the silly youth spraying our streets with violence, it is people like those in this article Tea Party membership that instill shame in my blackness.

    WTF!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/bvince/ bvince

    _A_, “At no time did the Republicans control both houses.”

    The Republicans held both houses from 1996 to 2006. They tried to impeach Clinton remember? The Republicans has held power for over 100 years easily.

    The first black president (and the first president ever of the U.S.) got things done in 1 year with everyone backing him, so they are not going to let this happen with the second black president.

    My question is why did they have to show signs that has their race on it? It doesn’t make sense. If you want to join them, join them but to bring race into it is suspect at best.

    And _A_ you are wrong about “The media has effectively turned our focus to the tea party and AWAY from Obama’s ineffective policies and lies.”

    The tea party was brought to light by Fox News, they were the ones who put them in the lime light. No ‘liberal’ media did that, the ‘conservative’ media did that. The ‘liberal’ media did that AFTER Fox put them out there now your argument can hold water.

    I agree with you about Tim Geithner. I have read about Wall Street for years…well truth be told I read the Wall Street Journal everyday..minus the editorial part of course.

    Ok, here’s the deal, no one really knows President Obama’s agenda but President Obama, and no one knows his intentions but him. I hope he means well, but only time will tell. There have been a number of arguments concerning President Obama, 1 being he’s not doing enough regarding race relations. I want to know, what in the hell is this man supposed to do. I doubt any speech he can muster would change the minds of ignorant people. I don’t need a speech from this man to realize how race relations been affecting America, it’s been that way since 1619 and probably before then.

    Ignorance decided that after the election of this man it would once again rear its ugly head. No longer are people content to call us n****rs behind doors but the thought of a black man in the oval office has caused outrage at a level that being called a n****r to our faces would suffice.

    I am reading the novel The Runaway Jury by John Grisham. In this novel one man is controlling 10 other jurors with the exception of one, the foreman. Nicholas Easter is playing everyone like a fiddle, by manipulating conversations and all. Causing the jurors to strike and essentially follow his lead just so the verdict will work in his favor. It’s brilliant. I realize those that are in power are no different; manipulating government to suit personal agendas. When will you people wake up. President Obama is nothing more than an escape goat for those who are truly in power, Congress, big oil companies,
    1. Astor
    2. Bundy
    3. Collins
    4. DuPont

    We always knew the Republicans had their favorite Negroes, but it never got this sad. The TeaBaggers come across to me as nothing more than a bunch of poor, pissed-off, helpless, inbred white folks who are victims, indeed, of this recession and have gotten royally shafted and screwed over by their richer, more well-connected white cousins in Corporate Amerikkka, who don’t want to have absolutely anything to do with them!…(lol!)…Yes, they are ‘really’ politically and financially powerless, in some ways much more than us Black folks. They have been more dependent on these lost jobs and deep downturns in industries across the board. They are the real victims of all of those jobs that were sent overseas and outsourced by their wealthier, more corporate family members. But these uneducated negroes who are in the party with them are of no threat to anyone and are being used as pieces of live propaganda. The worst part about it is that even they don’t realize it. No one ever talks about the origins of the TeaBaggers…never noticing how they came about until after Obama won the election with surety!

    People’s logic is sometimes amazing. Every day, without fail, everybody beats Prez Obama upside the head, calls him names, talks about his beautiful wife and daughters, calls him a Communist, a Socialist, a incompetent “community organizer”, a Marxist, a traitor, un-Amerikan, a half-breed, half-white, half-black, arrogant, a smart-ass, a jerk, the anti-Christ….they call “The President” all of these things. Yet, in spite of all this, everybody, TeaBaggers, Republicans, racists, anti-Obamites still wants him to fix the economy and fix the government. It’s f*cking hilarious how childish grown people are nowadays, where we see these things everyday in the 24-hr. media monster….Just f*cking hilarious…

    just like Mr. Sagbo in Russia who was the first black elected to office, where there are few blacks, whites can hold their racism because they still feel in control and without apposition. Please it allows them to tell themselves they aren’t racist. Now there are different levels of negros. Oprah said that Tyler Perry moved from a negro to a Black man…lol I suppose negros have a hard time seeing themselves. First of all, how many “black men” cross dress, even for “entertainment?” And that church thing..then we go his rollie eyed fat black minstrel characters which enforce the white stereotypes of jovial, happy darkies.. Yeah he’s a negro turned black man alright.. So we have negros from the Tea Party to Tyler Perry and everything in between..

    Negro was created by the white man from Africans imported to the Americas. They Africans were transformed into beings who eventurally had no knowledge of their history, culture, ancestors, they were made by the white supremacy in America. They make great white folks in black face. That’s why the range.

Has people forgot that it was 43 white president before Mr.Obama and alot of choices were made before he came in but the media has done everything in it’s power to blame him Left or Right. The war started before President Obama ever won. The money issues happen before he won. The big car companys were in trouble before he won. Yet they still blame him. Don’t get me wrong I do have issue with him but not for what some may think.I think that Mr.Obama has listen to way to many Jews and he’s now paying for it. And these House N****rs are jumping into protect there slave masters. Don’t believe me just look at the comment here. This is one group vs another group.

Bush won a second term after invading a sovereign nation that had no weapons of mass destruction, wasting hundreds of millions on no bid contracts, sending thousands of american service men & women to war…do i need to go on.

    After 8 years of Bush and 2 years of Obama Whites want a revolution?

    They have declared a silent war on Obama, the truth and common decency. We knew it would be tough and that we hard times ahead but this is madness.

    This comes as no surprise to me. In fact I wondered what took the house negros so long to come out of the house. There have always been Black informers. The first recorded informer wrote the Governor of South Carolina To warn him of an impending uprising called “The Great Secret” on October 10, 1793.

    If you are interested check out Volume 1, A doc**entary history of the Negro People in the United States from Colonial times through the Civil War. Edited by Herbert Aptheker preface by Dr. W.E. B. DuBois.

    There will always be Black folks that try to be alright with the man, I have run into a few in my lifetime. So don’t be surprised or even concerned, even the white folks don’t dig them, they just use the fools.

    She’s like most of them blacks in the tea party, She is now grinning from ear to ear and that will be until they go to a tea party event and white racist fringe among them call their stupid azzes a “nigg*r” and toss a rope at them! I would love to see how long that big grin last on their faces then, but knowing the mentality of some of these blacks they would have that same dumb azz grin on their mugs stating that fringe were only kidding.. These blacks who must have had blinders on their eyes when the racist idiots had them posters with the vile rhetoric on them in Washington D.C.

    I wonder do you black folks think the lady is racist or whatever because shes with the tea party now, OR because she doesn’t support Jesus, er! oops! God, damn! my bad, Obama, anymore….

    My fault, I get those 3 mixed up when Obama is mentioned…

    Karen Cooper is spot on! I concur with everything she said.

    Barack Hussein Obama doesn’t have the best interest of this country at heart. He shouldn’t be in the White House.

    @bvince. You are playing a little revisionist history my friend. There was simultaneous coverage of the Tea Party from all networks. Network news doesn’t work that way. There isn’t one story of importance that a particular network isn’t covering. None of them lets the other beat them to a story for very long. Obviously, the perspective/slant/angle all oppose each other, where FOX is concerned. But keep in mind, it was the LIBERAL media who focused on the RACISM and didn’t deal with core issues of this movement. Because of that, blacks were turned off from the start, because we are still a very emotional, knee-jerk people, and because of that, it is EASY to get us to not think and just react.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/_A_/ _A_

    @bvince. You are a very intelligent person. Do you not see anything within the tea party that you agree with? Do you truly believe that this movement has racism/hatred at it’s core, with no redeeming values? See brother, I already know my answer. You are too smart for that. This banking system is POISON to individuals and nations. DEBT=SLAVERY and this is why every single dollar that enters the money supply, does that as debt. Include Fractional RESERVE BANKING and you have the recipe of a devious, nefarious system run by people whose only desire is to control. Many love to dismiss that as conspiracy theory talk, but if one understands how this system is designed, I find it difficult to understand how it can be viewed in any other way.

    Why does she need a sign about ‘mixed’ people?? Maybe cuz she’s of ‘mixed’ race, she feels more connected to her former slave owners. Stockholm syndrome is alive and well!!

    Johnny Walker, you are right!! Just look at that black woman on the news that actually thought Obama would come to her house and fill up her gas tank.

    BRAKEBREAD28, thank you!! My sentiments exactly about the tea baggers being full of racists, kkk members, neo-nazis and the rest of em… but silly azz blacks are on here championing them.

    Both parties are flawed, no doubt there.

    This is just a mess…as far as Im concerned, I can’t call them racist because I havent been to a meeting..lol!

    What I can say is that there are alot of racial undertones in their movementl; just look at those signs. They say it all right there. “monkey see, monkey spend”. Low blows.

    During the Civil Rights movement when MLK Jr. said there would be peace within the marches, that is what he meant. As a head figure of the movement, he told the ppl who supported his cause non-violence was the common denominator, no matter what ppl do to you and those ppl suffered and many lost their lives. The ppl of the Tea Party arent going through any torture or mistreatment, they simply have an issue with the current President and his administration. So where is the leader of the Tea Party and why is he not denouncing these messages of hate, toward our President as uncalled for? That doesn’t help to further there cause any more.

    It’s funny that the issue, this woman has is he is “coddling Blacks” and for his nomination of Sotomayor? Maybe she was the best person, in his eyes, for the position. The Court is predominantly full of males, White males at that. Then she has issue with him giving his opinion about the arrest of a man on suspicion of burgularly, who was outside his own home. Is she serious? He is the President but he is entitled to his own feelings about any issue, same as every other US citizen, hence the signs they parading around at their Tea Parties. She must not be watching any news or tuned into any media outlets to know racial profiling happens all the time, and more than a few White officers have abused the power of their badge. I hope she doesnt have any young Black men in her family who happen to be in the wrong place, wrong time and come across the wrong officer. I wonder if there a badge there’s a badge he can flash stating, Im a Tea Party member, that will help him out in a situation like that. She hasn’t ever sat down and talked with Obama, so as she pointed out about those who have never been to a Tea Party gathering, maybe she should take some of her own advice and not talk about and condemn the man. I dont care if I disagree with things Pres Obama does, Im not supporting any organization that makes reference to a Black man as a monkey, when Im a Black woman.

    Obama doesn’t come off as favoring one race more than the other, if anything he is torn or somewhere in the middle. He has family within both races. Somehow I feel, no matter what he does one race will feel slighted, or that he’s leaning toward the other. I never seen so many ppl; Black, White and all colors come together, as when President Obama was running and elected, but I guess ppl were expecting overnight results from the mess Bush made over 8 yrs.

    It doesnt work that way, think about in your individual households when you get in debt, you have to go in the whole sometimes deeper than you want. borrowing and trying to rob Paul to pay Peter, as they say, before you can begin to dig yourself back out. That’s what’s happening with the country and at every turn he is being blocked or catching flack for something, all while crises and disasters are still taking place regularly. He is one man. With a country of backbiters who want instant gratification and to see him fail as the first Black President. That’s a tough pill to swallow, when I hear Black ppl talk like this. Divide and Conquer. That’s how Blacks have managed to remain in subjection for so long. She’s entitled to her opinion, but her reasoning behind her decision is a bit absurd.

    When I saw a few of the tea party-ers spitting on several reps in Congress on TV and spewing racial undertones, that sealed the deal with me that they were racist. Even if some of the members state they are not (they surely believe in White privilege) – Why align yourself with such a group that reaps so much hate? Where were they during Bush’s Administration? Heck, I would have joined! But they use the very small amount of African American as pawns which is not anything new nor surprising. That lady with the sign that state she’s Mixed, is right.. Mixed up in the Head!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/P8Q9R6/ P8Q9R6

    I will put it this way. I, personally, have never been to a Tea Party meet-
    ing, so I don’t know who is racist or who is not. The point is this all
    throughout American history white folk have always used certain black folk as pawns in miscellaneous events throughout history. As far as political
    parties goes, I have always been a Democrat, but I am leaning more in favor
    of becoming an independent in future elections. People like Karen Cooper and Pastor Manning who are black are entitled to their own opinion of Obama
    just like anyone else. There will always be a need for groups like the
    NAACP, the Urban League, and other black related organization due to the
    systematic and historical racism against black folks as well as other
    groups that are considered as “minorities.” During the early days, a good
    majority of black folk were republicans. Perhaps, a new day is forthcoming
    in terms of black embracing the Republican Party and their ideology. There
    are certain things Obama have done that I am not totally in favor of, but I
    am not going to bash his head. Apparently becoming the first black president of the United States of America is not a big deal with some black
    folk if he or she’s performance is not in step with the tune of its citizens. I understand the difference between the Democratic and Republican
    Party very clearly. The Democrats have always been in favor of having
    governmental control over the lives of its citizens while the Republicans
    have always been in favor of self sufficiency for its citizens. In other
    words, Republicans claim to allow its citizens to breathe a little bit bet-
    ter by allowing them to take control of their own destiny with limited funds
    from a government. Is this not the philosophy behind tbese two parties.
    If the NAACP had not put in their two cents after this one white Tea Party
    racist was discovered, it might have taken a little bit longer to dig this
    first one out of the bunch. Racism have always been embedded in the United
    States of America. This is not fiction. It is a fact as we all know. From
    the earlier days of the white doctors using members of the Tuskegee air force as “guinea pigs,” for their own selfish ideology towards black folk,
    we all know that racism exists. To tell you the truth, I am not impressed
    with the current head of the Republican Party named Micheal Steele either.
    Remember now, Micheal Steele is a black man at one time I did admire, but
    not anymore. Yes. There is a need for more black Republicans in this party. However, using certain black folk as “pawns,” and “Uncle Toms,” is
    never going to solve the real Negro problem that exists in America. To tell
    you the truth, it aint going to solve the white man’s problem either.
    Well, look back through the history of the United States. I will always
    admire Barack Obama become this one man took a stand to want to become
    president of the United States. Do I agree with everything he has done.
    No. I do not. Do I agree with everything former president George Bush
    done in his administration. No. I do not. Even if I decided to vote for
    the McCain/Palin ticket at the time, would things have been any better
    than they are now with this current administration. Obama took heat for
    the passing of his health care bill. Yes. It is going to cost a little
    bit more for taxpayers. Then again, what about people who have never had
    health insurance even with a job.
    as guinea pigs

    I will be voting inthe mid-term election. The republicains ran this country into the ground and they can not be allowed back in power. Obama has made mistakes – he is a first term president. His biggest mistake was trying to work with a party who clearly want him to fail. The republicains are not interested in working with the president, they block him at every turn. Stop cudding them Mr. President and go around them or through them but get the job done.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jacque_d88/ jacque_d88

    These people are just stupid. Also most everything that former President Bush did was unethical or illegal. Now someone is in the Whitehouse with ethics and morals, a bunch of c**kroaches are coming out of the wood work. This is so sad to see that some Black folks are still willing to be the “token” in trashing of our nation’s first Black president. President Obama is capable of doing this job and I pray his strengh endures. The tea party is racist, now to see some Blacks folks are so blind that they would stand up in public and show support for this mess sickening. Apparently they have disconnected from the Negro Experience and Journey in America. If the south would have won the war, do they think slaver would have ended? A couple of weeks ago, I spoke with a well positioned African American state employee in South Carolina who told me that “racism in hiring does not happen with his agency because we have measure in place for that”. Yet, I personally know of 2 African American workers who were overlooked for unquailifed white workers. It’s sad that some African Americans can not see the forrest from the trees. We don’t have to be racist in return but you should be willing to stand up for fairness and equality. This nation is not giving President Obama a fair chance, some are waiting for him to fail. I wish President Obama would stop extending the right hand of fellowship to these narrow minded bigots and do what needs to be done. They are so afraid of equality for all and having to give back what some of them have stolen in many cases that they are terrorized within. Here in South Carolina a Black man lost his life to a white man shooting him in the back of his head, then dragging the body 11 miles tided behind a pickup truck. No one in law enforcement is willing to call this a hate crime. Some use the excuse that the victim and perpetrator were friends. Well don’t know of any friends dragging another behind a pickup truck. President Obama deserves respect just as any other President of the U.S. The crazy thing is that these tea party people are not even protesting the war or spending of the war. They are just protesting any tax increase that might lead to fairness and equality for those who have been denied. President Obama has not increased any taxes other then the proposed taxes for the wealthy, so what’s the problem?

    It is sad, indeed, that people will get on a soap box, make thunderous pronouncements on as serious an issue as turning this country back from the abbyss where it had sank over the last eight years, yet don’t even bother to check their facts beforehand. Are there no libraries or other venues of simple reseach available to _A_, in the Bahamas? Where does he get the notion that the democrats controlled both houses of the Congress during president Bush’s two terms?
    The “easiest” thing to do would be to ignore people of his ilk, however that is also the most ineffectual thing to do. The best antidote to ignorance is irrefutable factsl; in other words, education in the best medecine against misinformation.
    If you survey the economic lanscape, it is mind boggling to note the dirth on destruction that has been heaved on this country in just eight years. Does no one remember the days of $ 1.50/gal price of gasoline, if nothing else?
    We can’t bemoan every ignorant sell-out that believes that they can get themselves “noticed” by saying the most stupid thing. All we can do is counter with the truth so as to douse the ignorace that they spew.

    @Jacque: you claim people can’t see the forest from the trees but you only see one side of the forest. Wrong is wrong regardless of skin color. Where were you when they made a movie about President Bush being assassinated? Or when they had monkey, hitler and joker posters of Bush? They make the same poster for President Obama and now everyone is racist. Because you were silent on the things about Bush, does that make you a racist? You disagreed with Bush over things during his 8 years in office. Was any of it race driven? Or did you think he was just doing a bad job? Have you spoken out against the New Black Panthers and the racist elements in the NAACP? Or can only whites be racists?
